Celebrating 64 Years of Inspired Music Making!

June 28 – August 2, 2025

EMF has a long history of bringing classical chamber music into the community to perform at retirement homes, libraries, children’s camps, city parks, museums, Rotary Clubs, and more.

We invite you to join us for a variety of offerings that are free and open to the public. Don’t miss the Annual Chamber Crawl, EMF Faculty and Guest Artist Masterclasses, Musically Speaking, or our Young Artist Recitals. Our full calendar of community events is available by visiting our Free Events Calendar

Due to the cancellation of EMF’s 2025 season, all community programs are currently paused for 2025.

NOTICE

With great sadness, Eastern Music Festival announced October 6, 2025 that the organization will cease operations. 

EMF has nurtured and educated more than 10,000 exceptionally talented young musicians over its sixty-four-year history. Many of our alumni are leading successful careers in the arts and entertainment industry, in part because of EMF’s dedicated educational work. We are proud of this legacy. 

EMF’s long, rich history in the city of Greensboro is another of our proudest achievements. Our work with libraries, schools, seniors, and in other community settings, as well as our work on the Guilford College campus, has brought great joy to many. 

The Festival will come to an end, but the work continues. EMF encourages others to take up the mantle and step boldly into the future with their educational and artistic endeavors. 

We thank the many donors, partners, and patrons who have supported EMF over the years and invested their time, energy, and resources in support of great classical music, the advancement of student musicians, and this important cultural institution.
